Vincent Van Gogh
About This Quote

In would rather die of passion than of boredom; the idea that one may be bored to death is a painful one, as I doubt anyone would want to be bored to death.However, dying of passion is not as painful as it sounds, as long as one is willing to accept the consequences. If someone is willing to do anything for love, then they may end up getting hurt. However, if the person is not willing to accept the consequences at their own hands, they will still have a chance at happiness.
